Hollywood Reporter Sale Finalized

Dec 10, 2009  •  Post A Comment

The sale of The Hollywood Reporter, along with the music trade Billboard and six other Nielsen Business Media publications, has been finalized, the Los Angeles Times reports.

As expected, the new owner is a consortium of investors called e5 Global Media consisting of financial services firm Guggenheim Partners and Pluribus Capital Management, a private equity fund led by James Finkelstein; Matthew Doull, former associate publisher of Wired UK, and George Green, former chief executive of Hearst Magazines International.

Finkelstein’s News Communications owns such publications as Roll Call and the "Who’s Who" directories. Finkelstein also owns the Thompson Publishing Group

Lachlan Murdoch, the son of News Corp. Chairman Rupert Murdoch, who was previously reported to be part of the acquisition, was not involved in the final deal, the Times said.

Editor & Publisher and Kirkus Reviews, Nielsen’s publishing trades, were not part of the deal and are being shut down,

  7. This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
